Do you want to see your favorite professor get a pie in the face? Sigma Zeta is hosting a new event!
Donate nonperishable food to a professor’s box of your choosing and the first professor’s box to be filled will get “pie-d” by the competing professor. Different professors will be competing each week. The “pie-ing” will be held the week before finals, and boxes are located under the TV on the second floor of EHS.
This week it is Carlisle Chambers vs. Matt Stump. The boxes must be filled or the professor won’t get “pie-d,” so start donating now!
